Description
Summary:MOTIVATION ON AWARD (translated from Swedish): "A teacher who challenges his students to think for themselves with assignments that create participation from them. He is a person who inspires great respect and its hard not to take in what he says, especially when students are continually allowed to use the theory he teaches in practical exercises and rewarding final projects. A teacher who has a twinkle in his eye and who does not always take himself too seriously, but can also joke a little with himself. When he speaks, people listen, but he also offers students to frequently take part in the discussion. He does not always give answers but asks questions that allow the students themselves to discuss the possible answers. He often tells students that he learns just as much from them as they will learn from him. He provides feedback on a continual basis, given in a way that is both constructive and shows that he cares. Regardless of an extremely busy schedule, Tim is always available to his students, including those who are not even in his courses."
